　神戸市に生まれ、二歳から五歳半まで米国アンドリュース州、オハイオ州にて過ごす。大学時代の三年間をカリフォルニア州で過ごし、心理学を専攻するも、高校時代の友人からの強い誘いを受けてバンド活動をするために休学して帰国。一年半後、米国には戻らずに三鷹のICU（国際基督教大学）に編入し、卒業。卒業後、株式会社リクルートに入社。初月の営業キャンペーンで全国一位の業績をあげ、セールスの才能に開花。その後、複数の会社で新規部門や新規事業の立ち上げに携わるが、利益追求や損得勘定ばかりに捉われた生き方に疑問を抱き、2015年に完全にプライベートな友人づくりの活動としてSoC英会話カフェを個人で立ち上げる。メンバー数の増加に伴い、エリアを拡大し、スタッフの数も増えたため法人化、現在に至る。

　趣味は、散歩、ドライブと旅、カフェや酒場巡り、料理とBBQ、ギターと作曲、SUPやスノボー等のシーズンスポーツ、街歩きや山歩き。

He was born in Kobe-city and then moved to the United States at the age of two and lived in Andrews and Ohio for three years and a half. During his college years, he studied psychology in Pucific Union College in California for three years but took a leave of absence to form a band with the best friend from high school. A year and a half later, he left the unversity and transferred to ICU in Mitaka and graduated there in 2004. He worked as a sales in a major ad sales company named Recruit and achieved the top sales record for the first month sales among hundreds of sales guys nationwide. Then he was involved in multiple new projects in about 10 companies. However, in 2015, he decided to start something personal to pursue different values in life than just living up to profitability sacrificing anything else, and he started SoC English Cafe. As the number of members increased, we incorporated and expanded the service area.

His hobby is enjoying walking, driving and traveling, hopping cafes and bars, cooking and having a barbecue, playing the guitar and writing songs, enjoying seasonal sports like sup boarding and snowboarding, hiking and trekking, etc.
